The 30-second brief
4 pre-RFPs (projects, hiring and grants) found in Link Transit's meetings, most in transportation and administration & finance. The latest, from Sep 15: At its September 15, 2026 meeting, staff reported that a new ADA bus stop pad would be installed at St Judes that week and that a new ADA bus stop had already been installed in Waterville. Shelters are on order, but the supplier is backlogged until spring. This indicates continued small-dollar transit stop work and a near-term need for shelter delivery and installation follow-through.
